HYDATID SEROLOGY

HYDATID SEROLOGY

Hydatid Serology is a blood test used to help detect antibodies associated with hydatid disease, a parasitic infection caused by Echinococcus. It may be recommended when symptoms or imaging findings suggest the presence of hydatid cysts, commonly involving the liver or lungs. A positive result can support the diagnosis but does not confirm infection on its own. Results should be interpreted along with imaging and other clinical findings.`
